More quotes by William Shakespeare
The art of our necessities is strange That can make vile things precious.
William Shakespeare
The latter end of a fray, and the beginning of a feast, Fits a dull fighter, and a keen guest.
William Shakespeare
So curses all Eve's daughters of what complexion soever.
William Shakespeare
Get thee to a nunnery.
William Shakespeare
O Judgment ! Thou art fled to brutish beasts, and men have lost their reason !
William Shakespeare
Misery acquaints a man with strange bedfellows.
William Shakespeare
I am bewitched with the rogue's company. If the rascal have not given me medicines to make me love him, I'll be hanged.
William Shakespeare
If there be no great love in the beginning, yet heaven may decrease it upon better acquaintance, when we are married and have more occasion to know one another: I hope, upon familiarity will grow more contempt.
William Shakespeare
So loving to my mother, That he might not beteem the winds of heaven, Visit her face' too roughly.
William Shakespeare
In friendship, as in love, we are often happier through our ignorance than our knowledge.
William Shakespeare
To have seen much and to have nothing is to have rich eyes and poor hands.
William Shakespeare
A woman impudent and mannish grown Is not more loath'd than an effeminate man.
William Shakespeare
My falcon now is sharp and passing empty, and till she stoop she must not be full-gorged, for then she never looks upon her lure.
William Shakespeare
Thou art an elm, my husband, I a vine, Whose weakness, married to thy stronger state, Makes me with thy strength to communicate.
William Shakespeare
I am joined with no foot land-rakers, no long-staff, sixpenny strikers, none of these mad, mustachio purple-hued maltworms, but with nobility and tranquillity.
William Shakespeare
With mirth and laughter let old wrinkles come. And let my liver rather heat with wine, than my heart cool with mortifying groans.
William Shakespeare
I did never know so full a voice issue from so empty a heart: but the saying is true 'The empty vessel makes the greatest sound'.
William Shakespeare
True, I talk of dreams, Which are the children of an idle brain, Begot of nothing but vain fantasy, Which is as thin of substance as the air, And more inconstant than the wind, who woos Even now the frozen bosom of the north, And, being anger'd, puffs away from thence, Turning his side to the dew-dropping south.
William Shakespeare
Your bait of falsehood takes this carp of truth, And thus do we of wisdom and of reach, With windlasses and with assays of bias, By indirections find directions out.
William Shakespeare
Now let it work. Mischief, thou art afoot. Take thou what course thou wilt.
William Shakespeare
